Silence in the Library
By: Mridula Murugan
Silence settles
between the shelves—
no one speaks,
but everyone’s
listening.
Pages turn,
soft as breath,
chairs scraping,
a light footstep
and thoughts rise
louder than sound.
Even time slows,
careful not to break
what’s quietly
becoming.
The quiet sounds
of a story
beginning.
